Dark brown. No head. On the nose, rich barrel/whisky notes, coffee is assertive, and there's a bit of vanilla. Sweet, the coffee and vanilla actually go together. Pretty drinkable for this size, the body having a touch of acidity that helps to bring it to life. The finish is a bit nuttiness. Looking at this one way, it's a fucking mess. Looking at this another way, it's a happy mess.

12 oz. bottle, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma is very complex and multi-faceted, with coffee, whiskey barrels, cocoa and vanilla, with a touch of spiciness. Flavour is along the same lines, with spicy peppers, cocoa, vanilla, coffee and whiskey barrels. Probably a bit too many elements here, but they do work cohesively. Finishes on barrel notes, with a touch of spice. Excellent.
